Abstract: | Fundamental frequency analysis is used to examine the LCC series-parallel loaded resonant converter with a capacitive output filter when operating as a high-power-factor rectifier. Optimum values are identified for the Q factor and voltage conversion ratio such that zero-voltage switching is just maintained, while minimizing the resonant circuit conduction losses. A simple resonant current control loop is shown to provide an effective mechanism of active control, achieving a high-quality input current waveform over a wide load range. Results are presented from a 1 MHz 160 W prototype |
